Ok try this
Install latest version of titanium
Open titanium -menu -extract from nandroid backup
And select your backup, it will give you.list of available.data, select.required.data.
Thats it.

there is no other way of backing up rom+data other than nandroid.
even if the md5 is not generated is the backup folder being made?

yes a folder with the date created is getting created in the storage.. some times does anywher between 200- 300mb, sometimes just 16 to 50 mb in size... ive flashed the latest CM10 kernel and the latest SuperSU according to another post... still no go...

if nandroid is very important for u. The go back to stock root, put safe kernel, wipe and then try to do backup

okay it finally worked after flashing the latest CM10 .tar through odin
Thanks for all ur help!!!

My problem and how I fixed it.
I made a nandroid backup. WHen it creates it, ya see it ceates it with a date.
I backed up the backup 3 times on my pc. but i renamed it to something like: Galaxy Note backup 2 Jan 10th 2013
then when i went to do a restore, MD5 Mismatch, so i read here no spaces, so i just renamed it to: notebackup
no spaces... and bang it worked. so make sure u dont have any spaces in it. it can be named whatever u want just no spaces.
hope that helps anyone...
Good Luck

I've a backup file, which I neither renamed or have any spaces in the file.. How come that When I'm trying to restore the file, its saying MD5 Mismatch. I've a GT-N7000..
Can you Please help??

You just qouted one of the solutions, and other solution is in the first post
Why not start some reading first...

The Problem is that I just checked, the Backup file Folder, & found that there is no MD5 file created.. How is this Possible?? Can I copy/Paste a MD5 File from one of the newer backups that I've in the Older Backup where there is no MD5 file & then try to restore?
Will I be able to do this?

I think it would not work...
On which kernel/rom you made this older backup which you want to restore? ...and on which kernel you are now?

I tried to do the below, but again the MD5 Mismatch..
How do I go back to my previous back up to be installed?? Can you please help??

are you use the backup was complete ? have you restored this backup before? if you are sure that the backup is complete and has worked.. then check with the new Philz kernel which has an option to toggle MD5 check. not sure if this will work but try..

My older version is a dell kernel.. Now I'm using a cm10.1 kernel.. After the backup was made I had not tried the restoring option.. Now while I'm trying to this is the problem I've seen...

That usually means you have too many backups on the sd card, move some to your pc and you should be fine..........
Also make sure there are no spaces in the name of the folders, and that your battery isn't too low

It seems the problem was that i added spaces when i renamed the folders. Removed the spaces and problem fixed . Thanx a lot for all the help!

Where did you copy your Backup
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
I made a backup via cwm..im trying to restore "data" and "system" via advanced restore and see wether it works..currently doing that
OK let me know then!
If it not works, try the app nitrality from market, you can try to restore your efs backup with the app
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
didnt work.
So now I am fully restoring it via CWM, before i was rebooting into CWM mode, and then advance restoring.
Ok I'm gonna also try that app and let you know!
Btw thank you so much for your help man!! Im so bloody depressed! :-(
The damage is reversible right? I mean im not a gonner am I? I'll keep you updated!
Since you made an backup of your efs folder its always possible to restore so no reason for getting depressed mate!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
I restored it fully, but after the phone rebooted, it just got stuck at the boot screen..i took out the battery after 5 mins as it was still stuck at the boot screen.
What do you suggest now? I'll try that app you suggested once I get my firmware working!
Retiring for bed, will follow up on your advice when i wake up..
Go into the recovery and make a factory reset, if the Akku trick won't work

Did you make sure you flashed with a .pit file as well,? You must do this down grading as the file partitions are different from ics
Ok I tried to go into recovery mode, but the phone would just boot again, from the very first boot screen (where samsung is displayed at the bottom)..so should i flash again with the .pit thingy?
ok guyz nitrality didnt work..flashed it with gingerbread with .pit again..no imei number

Do you have a back up of your efs folder?
Yes i have the efs backup on my pc and ds car. I tried copying the efs to system root dir, but no luck.
the nv_data.bin file is 2MB in the backup folder on my sd card, but as soon as I copy the whole efs folder to root dir, this nv_data.bin file is 0bytes size..
One question, when u copied your Backup into the root directory
Did you made a reboot then?

Good.
I would try Ktool from G-play that can back up efs and install kernel.
extract the zImage from the kernel you would like to install to root folder of sdcard then use Ktool to install. It will work from right inside the android system.
It is a very useful tool and free as well ! it may help fix the problem with kernel and CWM.
cheers.
whats EFS

What is EFS ?? may i ask
nvm
Its encrypting file system
EFS is a partition in Note. It is important since it hold information on emei number for the phone. Sometime after brick or install a rom the emei number may be messed up and you end up with a generic emei which still work but not a good thing.
Then if you have back up of EFS you can restore it and get your original emei number back.
Have you tried to install kernel with Ktool yet?

[Q] Stuck at the "cm7" screen [UPDATE: Bootloop Logcat Attached!]

I was trying to mount the memory card by using the usb mass storage mode in a rescue disk but the mobile restarted itself a couple of times.. Later on I tried to mount the usb from cwm5 but was unsuccessful. In between all this, I do not know what happened (improper mounting/unmounting?) my device is now not booting into the OS.
Tried reinserting the battery.. no difference. Tried removing the memory card, stuck on "android" logo.
When I restart the mobile, it goes till the end of the bootscreen "Entering system" but then it reverts back to "cm7" boot screen and is stuck there.
My memory card is ok since i tried to mount it using cwm5 in windows and its working fine.
Can anyone let me know any quick solution to this as I need it working urgently?
I am using latest Apocalypse rom with firekernel kernel and amarrullz(???) script.
Did you considered reflashing the ROM?

But boot loop is more of when you are stuck on "android" screen. I am stuck on boot animation.
Update : I made a fresh installation of Apocalypse.
Restored backup of sd-ext : lots of fc but working.
Restored backup of data : stuck at book animation.
I am thinking maybe some broken application is causing this.. any way to find out for sure?
once happened to me with apocalipse. I lost the data.
Sorry for bad english.

Insert witty sentence here
I already did install a new rom last night! But i still need data from previous rom... like sms and whatsapp and other apps.. so I have made a nandroid backup just in case.
Can anyone help me in solving it or recovering the data from the nandriod atleast? Tried appextractor but it wasn't able to restore sms and didn't show whatsapp only! TB didn't help too. I guess its due too d2sd script due to which these apps are not able to locate the data. Any other app which might work?

Maybe opening the nandroid backup manually with 7zip and such. Look up inside your data and system .img files. Use the files inside to create a flashable zip with the data from the apps you most desperatly need. done by using a flashable zip for a rom, deleting everythin inside it except for META-INF, and looking at the updater-script file to make mount /data and flash to /data instead of flashing to /system, place the folder with the data you need inside the zip.

I am getting what you are trying to say but seems like I don't need it. I was able to restore the sd-ext partition which had all the data.. seems like sms file is corrupt? But anyhow, I think most of the data is there now, but no apps! I can see the ".asec" files in ".android_secure" backup but have no idea how to make apk out of these? Any though how nandriod is able to do that or any script for that?

S3 MINI i8190 IMEI NULL after cyanogenmod update

Hi guys,
Yesterday I updated my cyanogenmod 11 with newest version doing a wipe cache first. After rebooting my phone seems to have an issue: the IMEI is null and I can't call or receive calls.
So I decided to flash the stock rom with odin, I thought that this could help, but nothing to do, the IMEI is still null and I can't use the phone
The first time I installed cyanogen I made a backup (using TWRP function), looking for that backup files, I discovered a file called efs.ext4.win, but if I try to open it with an unrar program, I see these files inside:
\.files
\bluetooth
\FactoryApp
\imei
\RFHAL
\RFHAL.DEF
\wifi
GUARDFIL
gyro_cal_data
pre_recovery.log
I don't see any "nv_data.bin" file or something like that. Is that normal?
Anyway, I think that EFS folder is corrupt or missing, i don't know. Is there a way to solve this issue? Thank you.

Thanks for replying.
I tried to restore EFS folder using TWRP and my backup, but nothing changed, I still don't have Imei and baseband.
Do you think that flashing a PIT file could help me?
Thank you so much.
